Ultrasonic guided wave techniques are extensively applied in the non-destructive testing
and structural health monitoring (SHM) of oil and gas pipelines due to its advantages of wide …

Ultrasonic guided wave (UGW) is one of the most commonly used technologies for non-
destructive evaluation (NDE) and structural health monitoring (SHM) of structural …

This paper aims to provide an overview of the experimental and simulation works focused
on the detection, localisation and assessment of various defects in pipes by applying fast …

Guided waves based structural health monitoring systems have been proposed to ensure
reliability and structural integrity of pipelines. These systems are designed with permanently …

Leaky waves are an important class of waves, particularly for guiding waves along structures
embedded within another medium; a mismatch in wavespeeds often leads to leakage of …

Ultrasonic guided waves (UGWs) are particularly effective in those nondestructive
evaluation and structural health monitoring applications that benefit from built-in …

Switch rails are indispensable components of high speed railway systems, which have
stringent nondestructive testing requirements owing to the severe operating conditions. In …

Millions of miles of pipes are being used for the transportation, distribution, and local use of
petroleum products, gas, water, and chemicals. Most of the pipes are buried in soil, leading …

Pipeline blockage, which results from solid and hydrocarbon deposition caused by changes
in pressure, temperature, or composition, is a critical issue in oil and gas production and …

Modelling the scattering of guided waves by defects in three dimensions (3D) can be
challenging. The most popular way to achieve this is the finite element (FE) method, at the …
